Catkins, Brayford, South Molton, Devon, EX32 7QN

We had a lovely time in this spacious house. Relaxing and peaceful. Private surrounded by farmland. The hot tub isn't overlooked. The house itself is spacious and the king-sized zip bed was very comfortable. We stayed for one week and could have stayed longer to be honest.

We didn't have a phone signal but there was a landline if we needed it, but we used WhatsApp and WiFi calling. So this wasn't a problem.

We would stay again and while there managed to visit Bude, Bideford, Padstow and other areas.

Thank you again for a lovely stay x

Our family party consisted of 5 adults and two children and we were lucky to experience excellent sunny weather. Made good use of large garden playing badminton with our own equipment. Catkins provided snooker/table tennis facilities, Bar B Q, plus lovely Hot tub which we made good use of. Spacious lounge, conservatory and kitchen plus childrens play room meant no feeling of being crowded at all. Rooms were very clean, beds comfortable and a relaxing peaceful site. Owner quick to support when hot tub use was inadvertently interrupted. Happy memories and hope to return again.

6 adults and a baby (highchair provdied but we took out own travel cot)

Hotel quality beds - soooo comfortable. All rooms were spacious and clean.

Fully equipped kitchen - saucpans, frying pan, crockery, cutlery and utensils.

Filter coffee machine was a bonus. Coffee, tea, sugar (and milk on arrival) plus delicious fairy cakes!

Fantastic outdoor space, immaculate garden and a welcoming hot tub after long walks.

We took our camping chairs for the beach and used them in the garden.

All in all we had a brilliant time - thank you Catkins

We spent a great few days at Catkins cottage in February as a group of seven including 3 children plus a well-behaved dog. It was lovely to be welcomed to the cottage and greeted by some freshly baked butterfly cakes along with milk and tea-making facilities. The cottage was very spacious and tastefully decorated. It was particularly well equipped, with the only item lacking being the seventh dining chair which was easily rectified using a garden chair. The cottage was clean and warm, and we enjoyed the log fire in the evening ? with logs and kindling provid

Never again, nothing like the pictures shown and nobody wants to take responsibility for the descriptions which in our opinion from photos is nowhere near a 4 tick property. Also no surprise, as of yet our feedback is not on the cottage site but then looking at other independent sites we are not the only ones who have experienced this.

We had no ping pong balls, 1 pool cue, were told fibre optic internet but most of the time no signal and it currently isn?t even in the area.

The mould and damp needs dealing with, 4 teaspoons and 1 frying pan etc. We left
